David Dimbleby continues “The Conservatives rolled the dice with this snap election to increase their majority as they go into the Brexit negotiations, and they emerge on the other side in total victory, in fact, a landslide victory for the ages, eclipsing that of Margaret Thatcher in 1983. This is shaping up to be the largest victory for a political party since 1832, when the Whig candidate Earl Grey picked up 441 seats. If this eclipses even that, you would have to look all the way back to 1685, when the Tory Party picked up 468 out of the 513 seats in England, before there even was a Prime Minister, the first Prime Minister being Robert Walpole, taking office in 1792. These are officially unprecedented times for our United Kingdom, never has one party controlled such an overwhelming portion of the Commons.”
You’re sat in your campaign headquarters, and the room just erupts in cheers. You have done it. Not just done it, you have crushed it. It is now as clear as clear can be that you made the right decision to call this election, and completely eviscerate the field. You are heading into government with the largest mandate since well… ever. Still as you’re contemplating the magnitude of what just happened, the cheers in the room just never seem to end. Eventually they do, and now you have to think about getting back to your job as Prime Minister. Despite the overwhelming landslide you’ve achieved, there’s a lot on your plate. Brexit is the biggest elephant in the room, the country is demanding that your government can handle this as effectively as possible, as you’re scheduled to sit down in many meeting with Donald Tusk in Brussels. You may feel strong right now, the rabble-rousers on the fringes of the Conservative party falling quiet as their ability to obstruct evaporates, but if you fail to deal with this major issue approaching the country, you might not be in as strong a position as it appears on the surface.

Nick Timothy sat next to you on the sofa humours you. “Yes Mrs May, they have, let’s wait a couple of minutes, they’ll correct their mistake.” You turn to look at him, and all you can see is the weakest attempt to feign a smile you’ve ever seen. Your head drops, you whisper to him “I’ve lost, haven’t I?” and he just responds “Yes.” Indeed, a tidal wave of red engulfs many safe Conservative seats, MPs who have served for decades falling beneath its might. If you even held your own seat of Maidenhead is in question. You’ve lost your seat, making you the first Prime Minister in history to lose their seat in a general election. The shame and embarrassment do not stop for you. It’s likely this is an explosive end to your political career. If you can return as the Conservative candidate in the next election for your seat is yet to be seen. Your performance might render you too electorally toxic and a new candidate takes your place to run for the seat.
What does this mean for the new Labour government that will form? It’s not really that certain. Despite an overwhelming victory in Parliament, many Labour MPs and party staffers within the party despise Jeremy Corbyn, so his ability to lead the country as Prime Minister is not easy to predict. It is likely they will be able to unite over getting a soft Brexit deal that keeps the UK in the EEA, but aside for that, how much of the bold Labour manifesto can this large but unstable Labour majority get through is yet to be seen. If Corbyn will even survive as Prime Minister is unclear. The UK is heading into uncharted waters, and the big question is if the socialist Prime Minister from Islington North is up for it or not.

What does this mean for the new Labour government that will form? Likely with a majority this thin and fragile in a party that is divided so intensely over their leader and now Prime Minister, it’s likely not going to last long. It’s very possible that enough obstruction and resignations from the party could render them completely incapable of getting anything done, including Brexit. This might likely lead to a future election sooner rather than later, perhaps similar to what happened in February 1974, where the reigning coalition fell apart in less than a year, leading to an election in October the same year. Alternatively, the majority crumbles in the place of a coalition being formed, possibly with the Liberal Democrats, or possibly with the SNP, these parties forcing compromises out of Corbyn so he can stay on as Prime Minister. A lot of things are possible, but none of them are without chaos with this result.

Combine that with an extreme hunger for British sovereignty, and the climate for a sweeping UKIP victory are created. As you sit down to watch the BBC election coverage for the night, that’s exactly what has happened. A sea of purple sweeps across the country, a wave so strong that even your own Maidenhead constituency could get caught up in it. Whether or not that has happened, it hardly matters. The UK is lurching far rightwards towards an uncertain future where a complete crash out of the EU and many related agencies is all but certain. Nigel Farage has got his wish. When all is said and done, Brexit will mean Brexit.
What does this mean for the UKIP majority government that will form? It is unclear how effective a party will be able to govern, that only had one MP prior to the election, and as well not having a heap of experience to rely on like the other parties. It’s possible they could be an effective governing force that throws the country hard to the right and into an isolationist future, or it is equally possible that their governance devolves rapidly into incompetence and nothing much gets done. In terms of social issues, expect the UKIP majority to try to revive the death penalty, and expect stronger punishments for illegal immigration. Prime Minister Paul Nuttall has a long road ahead of him, and if he’s even up for the challenge of being Prime Minister, is also yet to be seen.

If this exit poll is correct it will be a disaster for the Conservatives and it will likely leave the Conservative party asking questions about where in the campaign they went wrong, as their expectations fall from potential landslides, down to an almost certain outcome that they have lost their majority entirely.
You’re sat in your campaign headquarters, surrounded by the unbearable tension of silence. You can feel the stench of disappointment in the air, and now all that remains in your mind is the question of if you’re still Prime Minister or not. Even if you are, does it even matter? What could a government do that has lost its faith in you, seen your gamble for a larger majority to move forwards into the Brexit negotiations absolutely fail? Regardless of if the Conservatives stay in government, it’s unlikely you’ll be leading the party for much longer, merely being the caretaker until the next Conservative leader comes along to determine which path to take from this point..
Where does this leave the Conservatives? The seat toll ticks over to 300, but it’s clear it’s not going much further than that. With no chance at a majority government, now your mind must switch to attempting to either form a coalition government, or continue on alone as a minority government. Whichever path you choose, you are now dependent on MPs not in your party to get legislation through Parliament.
`, `And so, decisions must be made. You are presented a set of options for how to form your next government, but it’s not as simple as just asking politely for an agreement. Your stances on the issues prior to this campaign and during it will likely make or break your agreements with them. As the largest party, you have the initiative, but should your negotiations fail and the opposition manages to succeed in forming a majority coalition government, your time as Prime Minister will be over and you’ll be sitting on the opposition benches. If both you and the opposition fail to form a coalition, then you will remain as Prime Minister with a minority government.
David Dimbleby continues: “The Labour Party have come from far behind, and eclipsed the Conservatives to become the largest party in the House of Commons. They however do not have a majority, if our exit poll is correct. The shocking fall of the Conservatives and rise of Labour in this election is astounding, in only six weeks we have seen a Conservative landslide in the polls collapse to the point of not even being the largest party in Westminster. They will be doing a lot of soul searching, figuring out where it all went wrong in this campaign.”
You’re sat in your campaign headquarters and the despair is imminent. As soon as Big Ben begins its iconic chimes, you can see it’s all over. Labour is the largest party, and it will be them that will lead the next government. What this means for the future is uncertain, but what is more certain is the Conservatives have been gutted in this election. A gamble for a bigger majority reduced to the opposition benches in a shocking campaign.
Where does this leave the future of the country? Labour being rather close to a majority may give them strength in the coalition negotiations, likely meaning the worst option of a total coalition of chaos will not occur. Still, depending on the performance of the Liberal Democrats and the SNP, Labour’s options are open.
`, `And so, the initiative is in Jeremy Corbyn’s hands. He will lead the coalition negotiations and determine which future for Britain is chosen. On one side, Tim Farron and the Liberal Democrats. Forming a coalition with them will weaken his campaign promises, but it avoids another Scottish independence referendum. On the other side, Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP. Forming a coalition with the SNP is worse in your view, as it won’t challenge and restrict Corbyn, and it will guarantee another chance for Scotland to break off from the United Kingdom. The question now is which path does Jeremy Corbyn take? You can only hope the Liberal Democrats have done well enough to be an option, or for the SNP to have done badly enough to not be an option.

What this means for the future is uncertain, but what is more certain is the Conservatives have been gutted in this election. A gamble for a bigger majority reduced to the opposition benches in a shocking campaign.
Where does this leave the future of the country? In short, the situation is likely not looking good. With no party near to carrying 326 seats, the nightmarish possibility looms over you. A coalition of chaos is likely about to form, and you can only hope the negotiations fall through and leave Labour with a minority government.
`, `And so, the initiative is in Jeremy Corbyn’s hands. He will lead the coalition negotiations and determine which future for Britain is chosen. On one side, Tim Farron and the Liberal Democrats. Forming a coalition with them will weaken his campaign promises, but it avoids another Scottish independence referendum. On the other side, Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP. Forming a coalition with the SNP is worse in your view, as it won’t challenge and restrict Corbyn, and it will guarantee another chance for Scotland to break off from the United Kingdom. The question now is which path does Jeremy Corbyn take, that is, if he even has a choice?
David Dimbleby continues: “The Liberal Democrats have come from catastrophe two years ago to recover and grasp a victory. After a rejection of both Labour and the Conservatives, the British people have answered with a third option. The Liberal Democrats will of course not have a majority, but nobody expected them six weeks ago to emerge as the largest party. The decline of both of the major forces in British politics will be studied for years to come. The Conservatives and Labour will have to do a lot of soul searching to figure out where they went wrong in this campaign.”
You’re sat in your campaign headquarters and the response is a mix of confusion and despair. You know that you failed, but are surprised that this is the way that your failure unfolded. The expectation was that the two party system would continue. If the Conservatives are to lose, it’s Labour who benefit. That however has not been the case, and instead it’s the Liberal Democrats who’ve emerged, picking up the pieces that they were in two years ago and performing far above what anyone expected of them. Whilst this is the end of your Premiership, the Liberal Democrats do not have a majority, and depending on if your seats combined with the Liberal Democrats add up to 326, you may be able to open up coalition talks with them.
Where does this leave the future of the country? It’s not exactly clear. The Liberal Democrats being the economic middle ground between Labour and the Conservatives makes the future rather unpredictable. When it comes to Brexit, the Liberal Democrats have staked out a more Remain leaving stance than either the Conservatives or Labour. Where they go from here, whether it is to lurch left or right, or go it alone, isn’t yet set in stone..
`, `And so, the initiative is in Tim Farron’s hands. He will lead the coalition negotiations to determine which future for Britain is chosen. To his left, Jeremy Corbyn and Labour. When it comes to Brexit he will likely find more agreement, but when it comes to economics, much of Corbyn’s hard-left platform may give Tim second thoughts. On his right, you and the Conservative party. Whilst Brexit will be a difficult issue to negotiate over, Tim might be willing to accept some economic compromises in order to form a coalition. The third option is he goes it alone with a Liberal Democrat minority government, attempting to get crucial votes from across the aisle on either side. The question is now which path does Tim Farron take?
David Dimbleby continues: “After the betrayal of the Conservative party on Brexit, the backlash has been swift and severe. Nigel Farage returned to politics to campaign for Paul Nuttall and a mass exodus of voters to UKIP has occurred, meaning according to our exit poll, that they are the largest party and will be leading coalition talks. Betraying the 2016 referendum has proven not to be an option for the Conservatives, as the electorate have swiftly punished them, and now it’s up to Paul Nuttall to lead the coalition talks.”
You’re sat in your campaign headquarters and the response is a sudden realisation. You couldn’t get away with this in the way you thought you could. You left an opening for UKIP to take advantage, and they did. More than did, they emerged as the largest party, as a wave of purple sweeps the map and crushes your hopes and dreams. The Conservatives have lost. Rejecting the will of the 2016 referendum has become your undoing. Perhaps if you’re lucky, you might be able to salvage the last shred of pride you have by trying to enter into the UKIP coalition, otherwise, it’s the opposition benches for you, and soon to follow, your resignation as Conservative leader.
Where does this leave the future of the country? The UKIP-led government that forms will sure be pushing for a Hard Brexit, and will likely sabotage any deals that compromise on that goal. Since their founding, UKIP have dreamed of leaving the EU, and now they’re mostly in control of the process, expect a rapid, messy withdrawal, as the hard-right nationalist Prime Minister Paul Nuttall takes a hammer to any previous work that has been done. It’s likely that the Brexit process will get messy from this point on.
`, `And so, the initiative is in Paul Nuttall’s hands. He will lead the coalition negotiations to determine which future for Britain is chosen. Most parties rule out a coalition agreement with UKIP entirely, but it is up to you if you have enough seats to try to negotiate a coalition agreement, your only hope now of staying in the government, although demoted to Deputy Prime Minister.
David Dimbleby continues: “This is a result six weeks ago nobody saw coming, but the British people have spoken out on a very serious issue today, if our exit poll ends up being correct. Before this point, the Green Party had only ever seen a single seat to their name, Brighton Pavilion, held by Green Party co-leader Caroline Lucas. However now that is expected to change. The voters went to the polls today and have voted, and the issue of the climate has been far more important than we could ever have imagined. A party with two equal co-leaders has never found themselves in this position, so the questions of who becomes Prime Minister are put into the spotlight as well.”
You’re sat in your campaign headquarters as you watch the exit poll be announced, and you just don’t know what to think. More than anything, you’re confused, the entire room is confused about what the hell just happened. The Green Party? The party that only had one seat prior becoming the largest party? Say it ain’t so! But it is so, and a wave of green sweeps across the country, giving the Green Party a majority in a shocking upset election. Hours of the BBC coverage are taken up by sheer bewilderment and confusion about who is going to be Prime Minister. Unlike the other parties, the Green Party has two equal co-leaders. Could it be either Caroline Lucas or Johnathan Bartley? Perhaps the Prime Minister becomes the Green’s sole deputy leader Amelia Womack?
What does this mean for the Green majority government that will form? Once a consensus agreement for Prime Minister is reached, it’s likely the Green government will try to work on two primary issues: environmental issues and repealing Article 50, keeping the UK in the EU. The Greens are united in their stance on Brexit. However, the Greens struggle with a larger divide between urban YIMBYs and rural NIMBYs. It is possible that these differences can be put aside for governing, but it’s also possible that the factionalism that underpins this divide will rip the party apart and prevent the Green government from governing effectively. We are yet to see which will happen, so will the Green Prime Minister, whoever it is be up to the challenge?
`, `And so, the initiative is in the Green Party’s hands. They will lead the coalition negotiations to determine which future for Britain is chosen. It’s possible that if they’re able to form a majority, both Labour and the Liberal Democrats may attempt to negotiate, however they have refused to negotiate outright with the Conservatives, meaning that relegation to the opposition benches for you is nothing short of certain. However, the future of the country is not so certain. The Green Party have not been in this position before,

Where does this leave the Conservatives? You’re far from a majority and unless there’s an exceptional performance from the Liberal Democrats, a coalition opportunity for you is likely out of the picture. From this point, the question is if the Labour Party can build a coalition or not.
`, `And so, decisions must be made. You are presented a set of options for how to form your next government, but it’s not as simple as just asking politely for an agreement.

If both you and the opposition fail to form a coalition, then you will remain as Prime Minister with a minority government.
After losing your majority, you engaged in talks with Tim Farron, the leader of the Liberal Democrats, and towards the end of June, a coalition agreement was signed. Chief Whip of the Conservative Party Gavin Williamson and Chief Whip of the Liberal Democrats Allistair Carmichael met at 10 Downing Street to sign the official documents declaring a coalition government. This was a gruelling few weeks, but as the largest party only just shy of a majority, you might have been able to extract more compromises out of the Liberal Democrats than the campaign would have suggested. This is not going to be an easy alliance, the Liberal Democrats may just sink the entire coalition if the Conservatives go to heavy on hard Brexit ideology, Thus the new government is walking a tightrope. The Liberal Democrats very well remember how they lost all their support in 2015 after serving in coalition with the Conservatives beforehand, so they are very likely to push harder to influence the government this time around and present a frustrating limitation to a great deal of the 2017 manifesto’s promises.
The Liberal Democrats being a socially progressive party will also expect further protections for LGBT+ people, a commitment to eliminating the gender pay gap, a relaxation of laws prohibiting cannabis use. Because of only narrowly missing a majority, some of the more drastic portions of the Liberal Democrats manifesto will likely not get forced upon you. One of the biggest contentions is the replacement of first past the post voting with a system of proportional representation. A referendum over replacing the voting system already failed in 2011, so it’s unlikely Tim Farron the new Deputy Prime Minister can have much of an ability to pressure the Conservatives over that issue. More likely however is that this is the end of Britain pulling out of the EEA after Brexit. The most likely agreement to be concluded at this point is a Soft Brexit where the UK leaves the EU, but remains in an agreement similar to Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein. This essentially makes the UK subject to EU trade laws, although has no say in them like it did previously. There is however an upside for British sovereignity in all of this. The UK will likely withdraw from the Common Fisheries policy, a benefit enjoyed by Norway and Iceland. At this moment, this is still theoretical, a lot could happen that either result in negotiations failing and the UK remaining a member of the EU, or negotiations drag on until you’re no longer Prime Minister and a new Prime Minister completes them. It’s up for you, Prime Minister to complete the Brexit negotiations, although with a Conservative party losing faith in you after you left them in a weaker state, that isn’t going to be easy.

A coalition government will be formed between the Conservatives and UKIP. To make it official, UKIP MP Douglas Carswell has travelled to 10 Downing Street to meet with Conservative Chief Whip Gavin Williamson to sign the papers officially declaring the coalition government. The Conservatives are the largest party in this coalition, meaning you will remain Prime Minister, and Paul Nuttall will become Deputy Prime Minister.
With such an agreement, the journey that your government is likely to take is one of a hard-right direction. Whilst the Conservative backbenches don’t like UKIP much, they are mostly willing to work with them to get Brexit done and other related policies. What this means for your government isn’t fully clear. The hard right of the Conservative party are not happy at you because you weakened the party, but they are happy that you chose to form a coalition with UKIP. For now, it seems they’re willing to let things play out and won’t have a vote of no-confidence against you. The possibilities for your Brexit deal now lean into hard Brexit options. UKIP will push hard to force the UK out of not just the EU, but the EEA and EFTA too. Whether this means you’ll get a deal at all is another question. UKIP ideally want a no-deal Brexit that places the UK-EU trade under World Trade Organisation rules, but you could possibly nudge a compromise out of them to avoid a full crash out of European affairs. This may be difficult, and depends on if you can get votes from elsewhere to get a Brexit deal despite UKIP’s refusal to agree to it. If they aren’t placated, it’s likely that the coalition will collapse and leave the Conservatives governing as a minority government. If this happens, it’s likely then the loud hard-right of the party will move forwards with their vote of no-confidence against you. The pressure on social issues isn’t as severe, although if you want to keep UKIP happy, you will have to lean conservative on social issues.
The most likely outcome is the coalition collapses eventually and your status as Prime Minister will be challenged, and it is unclear if you’ll survive, What’s also possible is the government obstructs all attempts at a Brexit deal, forces you to resign and then most likely a hard-right Prime Minister takes control of the Brexit negotiations with the blessing of UKIP behind them. At this point, your future as Prime Minister is very likely an uphill battle, and if you don’t do something quickly, you’ll find yourself on the backbenches before the end of the year.

Making it official, Chief Whip of the Conservative Party Gavin Williamson and DUP Chief Whip Jeffrey Donaldson met and signed the papers declaring the coalition government. You will remain Prime Minister, with Arlene Foster officially becoming deputy Prime Minister. The government that will form out of this will have a cabinet of mostly Conservative MPs, with DUP MPs in some cabinet positions. One agreement that was arrived at is that DUP MPs will staff the office of Brexit Secretary and the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland. This isn’t ideal for you, as it will certainly hamper your process with being free to get the Brexit deal that you want, but it could be worse. The initial agreement had the DUP staffing one of the Great Offices of State. You turned this down and a new compromise was agreed to which would leave all four Great Offices of State in Conservative hands, but would give the DUP a great deal of influence in the Brexit negotiations.
The DUP’s influence in a coalition will be rather profound. They will definitely influence the government in affairs concerning Northern Ireland. The Irish border will be a continuous issue in negotiations that the DUP will not compromise on, so getting a deal that satisfies the party will be difficult. This will especially be an obstacle to any sort of Hard Brexit deal if that’s what you want to achieve, as they will accept no deal that places a hard border on the island of Ireland. On the other hand, the DUP won’t be an obstacle to your social conservative campaign. They may not be as extreme in conservatism as they were when they led by Ian Paisley, but they are still among the most socially conservative parties in the country. This will likely keep the hard-right traditionalist wing of the party in check, and prevent an imminent vote of no confidence against you.
However, that doesn’t mean your premiership will be easy. Northern Ireland will continue to be a thorn throughout the negotiations, and some of the hard Brexiteer MPs in the party might seize on a chance to obstruct the process and oust you if they’re not pacified, but pacifying them might risk the coalition with the DUP collapsing entirely, and if that happens, it’s very likely you’ll follow soon after. The negotiations are going to be a major tightrope that will take up your premiership, and whether you stay on as Prime Minister or are ousted and replaced by a new Conservative prime minister, that all depends on how you handle this difficult process ahead of you.

Secured in the agreement was not a full-on coalition, but a confidence and supply agreement. Chief Whip of the Conservative Party Gavin Williamson and DUP Chief Whip Jeffrey Donaldson would meet and sign the papers, officially declaring the intention to offer confidence and supply to the Conservative minority government. The Conservatives will remain as the governing party, you as Prime Minister, although as a minority government, you will now need help from the DUP to pass legislation. This newfound leverage for the Democratic Unionists might place pressure on your government especially on issues related to Northern Ireland. The DUP being a party from Northern Ireland will almost certainly shape the Brexit negotiations to benefit Northern Ireland compared to Great Britain. They may not be the ultra-Protestant fundamentalists they were when Ian Paisley was in control of the party, but they are still deeply socially conservative, moreso than most of the Conservative party itself. As a result, expanding social progress to Northern Ireland that the rest of Great Britain already enjoys like LGBT+ rights and reproductive freedom will likely be more difficult than it had previously been.
The issues compounding the Irish border in relation to Brexit will now take centre stage, moreso than they did during the campaign. The DUP are in line with other Northern Irish parties on this issue, strongly opposing a hard border, only accepting a deal that preserves the Common Travel Area and the Good Friday Agreement. Nevertheless, you have agreement with them in the direction they want Northern Ireland to take. They are staunchly unionist, seeing Northern Ireland’s future as within the UK and not uniting with the Republic of Ireland. The likely future of Brexit with such a confidence and supply agreement in place is one of a soft Brexit. The Irish border question is a hard red line the DUP are unwilling to cross, and combined with your weakened capital as the Prime Minister with only a minority government, it likely won’t be long until forces from within the party will seek to force you out. If you are to survive, you better negotiate an acceptable Brexit deal, and quick. Otherwise, you’ll be counting the days until you’re no longer Prime Minister.

This is the least chaotic of the “Coalitions of Chaos” that could form. As he leaves his house in Islington, the press gather and snap photos, as he travels to Number 10 Downing Street where he will meet with Tim Farron. Accompanying Corbyn is Labour Chief Whip Nick Brown, and Tim Farron will be accompanied by Alistair Carmichael, the Chief Whip of the Liberal Democrats. They sign the official documents declaring that a coalition government has been formed.
For you, this is the end of your Premiership, and also the end of any serious chance at being Leader of the Opposition. You will now be treated as merely a caretaker until the next Conservative leader emerges to challenge in the next general election, which could possibly be soon depending on if the Labour-Liberal Democrat coalition collapses, which is rather likely if Tim Farron and Jeremy Corbyn can’t agree on the major issues facing the country. If this happens, the next election might not be too far away, although it won’t be you competing in it. You’ll be forced out, either voluntarily or not so voluntarily, and a new Conservative leader will be taking your place as Leader of the Opposition. However the collapse of this coalition whilst likely is not guaranteed, and if Corbyn is willing to make compromises on some of his harder left policies and succeed in negotiating with Brussels, a deal could be reached under this Labour-Liberal Democrat coalition. What this will look like specifically is uncertain, but what is very likely is a Soft Brexit to be reached. The UK will withdraw from the EU proper, but stay in the European Economic Area. This means the UK will continue to follow EU trade rules, but unlike when it was a member of the EU, it will have no say in what these rules are. One silver lining for some is that the UK might have a small chance of exiting the Common Fisheries policy, giving it a position similar to other EEA members Norway and Iceland, two countries with large fishing economies.
The road ahead for this new government is very bumpy and if they will even survive isn’t certain. Social policy is likely to take a progressive turn, as Corbyn is progressive on social issues and Tim Farron despite his past as a Christian has strongly committed his party to social progress. Economic policy will be less certain. The Labour manifesto in this campaign has been bold on economic issues.

For you, this is the end of your Premiership and by extension as you’ve lost your seat, the end of your leadership of the Conservative party entirely. It’s unclear who will take over to serve as caretaker for Leader of the Opposition until the Conservative leadership election, but most likely it will be Jeremy Hunt, the current Health Secretary. Whoever it is doesn’t matter much, this is a party very much licking its wounds after you led it to disaster. The new leader will challenge in the next general election, which could possibly be soon depending on if the Labour-Liberal Democrat coalition collapses, which is rather likely if Tim Farron and Jeremy Corbyn can’t agree on the major issues facing the country. If this happens, the next election might not be too far away, although it won’t be you competing in it. However the collapse of this coalition whilst likely is not guaranteed, and if Corbyn is willing to make compromises on some of his harder left policies and succeed in negotiating with Brussels, a deal could be reached under this Labour-Liberal Democrat coalition. What this will look like specifically is uncertain, but what is very likely is a Soft Brexit to be reached. The UK will withdraw from the EU proper, but stay in the European Economic Area. This means the UK will continue to follow EU trade rules, but unlike when it was a member of the EU, it will have no say in what these rules are. One silver lining for some is that the UK might have a small chance of exiting the Common Fisheries policy, giving it a position similar to other EEA members Norway and Iceland, two countries with large fishing economies.
The road ahead for this new government is very bumpy and if they will even survive isn’t certain. Social policy is likely to take a progressive turn, as Corbyn is progressive on social issues and Tim Farron despite his past as a Christian has strongly committed his party to social progress. Economic policy will be less certain. The Labour manifesto in this campaign has been bold on economic issues. It’s likely Labour will push for renationalisation of the railways and utilities, and if Tim Farron and the Liberal Democrats will go along with this or not is yet to be seen.

Corbyn also faces the Brexit negotiations. What a Brexit deal under this coalition will look like specifically is uncertain, but there are probably two outcomes. The first is a Soft Brexit agreement. The UK will withdraw from the EU proper, but stay in the European Economic Area. This means the UK will continue to follow EU trade rules, but unlike when it was a member of the EU, it will have no say in what these rules are. One silver lining for some is that the UK might have a small chance of exiting the Common Fisheries policy, giving it a position similar to other EEA members Norway and Iceland, two countries with large fishing economies. The other possibility is the SNP or the Liberal Democrats sabotage the negotiations and push to repeal Article 50, keeping the UK fully in the EU.
The road ahead for this new government is very bumpy and if they will even survive isn’t certain. Social policy is likely to take a progressive turn, as Corbyn is progressive on social issues and so is the SNP, and the Liberal Democrats are likely to go along with it. Economic policy is likely to be curtailed by the Liberal Democrats,who will likely prevent some of the worse excesses of Corbyn’s economic agenda. What is for sure however is that Corbyn will be Prime Minister, and how his premiership goes, that’s yet to be seen, and if Scotland will even be part of the UK for much longer, bears repeating.

This is the worst possible outcome. The dystopian reality of chaos that you feared in Number 10 is now reality. With the SNP is in the government, there is almost certainly going to be a second Scotland independence referendum, and who knows what else will come from this coalition of chaos? As he leaves his house in Islington, the press gather and snap photos, as he travels to Number 10 Downing Street where he will meet with Liberal Democrats leader Tim Farron and SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford. Accompanying Corbyn is Labour Chief Whip Nick Brown, Tim Farron will be accompanied by Allestair Carmichael, the Chief Whip of the Liberal Democrats and Ian Blackford will be accompanied by Patrick Grady, the Chief Whip of the Scottish National Party. They sign the official documents declaring that a coalition government has been formed.
For you, this is the end of your Premiership and most likely, the end of your political career. It’s unlikely someone as electorally toxic as you will even be selected to run for your old constituency again, although it’s not impossible. It’s unclear who will take over to serve as caretaker for Leader of the Opposition until the Conservative leadership election, but most likely it will be Jeremy Hunt, the current Health Secretary. Whoever it is doesn’t matter much, this is a party very much licking its wounds after you led it to disaster. The new leader will challenge in the next general election, which could possibly be soon depending on if the Labour-led coalition collapses.

Your time as Prime Minister is over, and you will be demoted to Deputy Prime Minister, with Tim Farron becoming the new Prime Minister. This may not be ideal for you, but at least you are still in government and not sitting on the opposition benches. Nevertheless, you will be travelling back to Number 10 Downing Street for the last time alongside Chief Whip Gavin Williamson to meet with Tim Farron and Liberal Democrats Chief Whip Alistair Carmichael. They will sign the official documents declaring the coalition lawful, and you’ll be handing over the keys to Number 10 to Tim Farron.
For you, this is the end of your Premiership, and it’s unlikely that as Deputy Prime Minister you’ll have much support from your party. However, depending on how may seats your party has managed to hold, you might be able to scrape out a few cabinet positions for the Conservatives. It’s unlikely you’ll be able to fill out any of the Great Offices, but if your negotiations were strong enough, it’s possible you’ve held onto one. Other than that, the rest of the Conservative presence in the cabinet will be lower level positions. How long you’ll last as Deputy Prime Minister isn’t exactly clear. Your party may try to remove you rather quickly and replace you, however there might be an outside chance you can survive if you can influence the Liberal Democrat led coalition government to Conservative ends. Another question is of how long this coalition will last for. Crucial issues like Brexit could lead to its collapse, depending on how strongly the Conservatives are willing to compromise with the Liberal Democrats on that issue. It’s possible also that negotiations fail from Hard Brexit Tory rebels that obstruct the process too, which likely would mean the coalition collapses and a general election follows soon after, that has an outside chance of you participating in it if the party can’t remove you quickly enough. Otherwise, the coalition might be surprisingly functional, an inverse of sorts to the 2010-2015 coalition headed by Cameron, with the Liberal Democrats in charge, but the incentive to maintain the coalition might keep it stable for some years, enough to score a Brexit agreement, that would likely be a Soft Brexit that keeps the UK in the EEA and EFTA, meaning it will follow EU trade rules without having any say in them, but scoring some exemptions in some areas, like leaving the Common Fisheries policy.
However things proceed from here, it isn’t certain, but for sure it’s going to be an interesting few years ahead for this country. Will Tim Farron be able to be an effective Prime Minister with this coalition government? That’s probably not likely, so the question is when the next election rolls around, will the Conservatives win back their old support, or will the Liberal Democrats win over the Conservative vote in a reverse 2015?

Tim Farron will travel to 10 Downing Street alongside Liberal Democrat Chief Whip Alistair Carmichael to meet with Jeremy Corbyn and Labour’s Chief Whip Nick Brown to sign the official papers declaring the Liberal Democrat-Labour coalition to be formed.p>
For you, this is the end of your Premiership, and also the end of any serious chance at being Leader of the Opposition. At best, you will now be treated as merely a caretaker until the next Conservative leader emerges to challenge in the next general election, which could possibly be soon depending on if the Labour-Liberal Democrat coalition collapses, which is rather likely if Tim Farron and Jeremy Corbyn can’t agree on the major issues facing the country. If this happens, the next election might not be too far away, although it won’t be you competing in it. You’ll be forced out, either voluntarily or not so voluntarily, and a new Conservative leader will be taking your place as Leader of the Opposition. However the collapse of this coalition whilst likely is not guaranteed, and if Farron is able to maintain Labour’s appeasement, it might remain stable for longer than expected, potentially even enough time to negotiate a Brexit deal. This deal will likely be a Soft Brexit. The UK will withdraw from the EU proper, but stay in the European Economic Area. This means the UK will continue to follow EU trade rules, but unlike when it was a member of the EU, it will have no say in what these rules are.

The road ahead for this new government is very bumpy and if they will even survive isn’t certain. Social policy is likely to take a progressive turn, as Tim Farron despite his past as a Christian has strongly committed his party to social progress, and Corbyn will not obstruct that. Economic policy will likely take a centre-left turn. The Liberal Democrats are economic centrists tenuously leaning left, but with Corbyn’s labour influencing them, it’s likely they’ll be pulled a bit further left still. What is for sure however is that Tim Farron will be Prime Minister, and how his premiership goes, that’s yet to be seen.

After that point, it’s likely the next general election isn’t too far away, as there is little chance of the current government being functional. You of course will not be competing in that election as Prime Minister, only as the MP for Maidenhead, if you choose to continue on your career as an MP. That is your choice to make. What this means for the Brexit negotiations is likely bad news. With an ineffective government at the most crucial of times, the only hope of keeping the Brexit negotiations on track is for the party to get behind a new leader and for them to pull the party out of the rut you’ve pulled it into. It’s difficult to say what the odds of that are, and what’s equally possible is the government after the next general election could be led by Labour, even Jeremy Corbyn if he continues on as leader.

It is possible that UKIP will attempt to hammer through as much as possible, but with their unprofessionalism in trying will meet pushback from even potential allies. It is possible that much of the current legislation on the books that UKIP want to either repeal or modifies survives based on that. How long the UKIP minority government lasts for is also unclear.

As well, they may look to work with the SNP in places, and if they will make the compromise that the SNP wants, a second Scottish independence referendum, isn’t ruled out. On social policy, expect a progressive shift. The Greens will find more agreement with Labour, the Liberal Democrats and the SNP so there will likely be some cooperation to advance LGBT+ rights and issues of gender equality. On Brexit, things are less clear cut. The Greens are a pro-Remain party, but if they will be willing to accept a soft Brexit compromise isn’t clear, or they will torpedo the entire process and spit in the faces of 17 million Brits who voted to leave a year ago.
